Thursday Morning Man: Tomasz Schafernaker!
Don’t you just love naughty boys?Apparently the 31-year-old hottie thought he was off camera and quickly put his hands to his face once he realized he had flipped off a nation.
His embarrassing gaffe came as newsreader Simon McCoy joked Tuesday morning: “Now we will have the weather forecast in a minute and it will be 100% accurate… I have just seen Tomasz preparing for it, so I am not entirely sure, oh.”
At that point the camera caught Schafernaker raising a finger at McCoy. The newsreader, sitting next to Fiona Armstrong, tried to stop smiling then added: “Every now and then there is one mistake and that was it.”
Tomasz, who was born in Gdansk but came to the UK as a child, is no stranger to controversy. He had to apologize previously for referring to the Western Isles as “Nowheresville” during a weather forecast. He has also stumbled over his words and referred to Glastonbury as a “muddy shite” rather than a “muddy site”, and called Devon “Devil”.
Also, in May 2008, he was seen on air tearing out his earpiece and saying “Well I don’t know if I’m on air on not so Gary over to you.”
He sounds like a riot!
Anyway, apparently eyebrows were raised earlier this year when the studly Tomasz showed off his impressive physique, shirtless, on the cover of the gay magazine Attitude Active.
Don’t ya just love this guy?
He joined the BBC Weather Centre in 2000, working as a broadcast assistant, and became a presenter in the same year; this made him the youngest man to present the BBC Weather.
There is actually a Facebook page titled: BBC Weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker should do the weather in skimpy shorts. I clicked “Like” on that lickety split!
